Father Eric seeks answers from God at St. Luke's. He prays and flashes to being raped but is certain Nicole would never do that to him. In the rectory office, Brady drops by with his vows. Nicole offers to give them to Eric but he doesn't trust her. She tells him he's so stupid he deserves what's coming to him. They rehash the Kristen argument and he follows her outside the church. He blurts out that she's in love with his brother. She admits it, loud enough for Eric to hear. She cries that she dreams of him and is miserable when she's not at his side. Brady reminds her she'll never be with him. This doesn't change the way she feels. She fought it so hard and tried to stay away from him but started making mistakes and doing crazy stuff. She lost control. That's why she quit. She sobs that she's so confused she doesn't recognize herself anymore. Neither does Brady. Nic smacks his arm and tells him to go to hell. He calls her a bitch and goes. Nicole takes the flowers into the church and comes face to face with Father Eric who heard everything. She's mortified and asks him to forget it. He forces her to say it to him so she does. She didn't think she was capable of doing some of the things she did and sobs that he must now see why she needs to leave. His face is bitter and when she asks for forgiveness, he doesn't think even God could do that. Nicole's baffled. It's not a sin to love. Father Eric calls what she did vile. "What do you think I did?" she asks. "You raped me!"
